"Stop!"
Zhu Zhengqi suddenly opened his mouth and shouted. Everyone's footsteps came to an abrupt halt.
"What's wrong, Grandpa?" Zhu Huawu turned around and asked Zhu Zhengqi softly.
Zhu Zhengqi's expression was dignified, "Something's not right. I feel like we've been targeted by some Demonic Beasts again!"
Zhu Huawu's expression changed, and he suddenly looked around, but didn't find anything out of the ordinary.
"Grandpa, are you sure?"
Zhu Huawu didn't dare to doubt the old man's words. Among the people present, the old man's cultivation was the highest, and he was the oldest. Moreover, he had the most experience in marching. Since he felt that something was wrong, then there must be something abnormal.
Damn it, the Yang Fan brothers had just lured those Demonic Beasts away. It hadn't even been half an hour. How could they be targeted by Demonic Beasts again?
Were the Demonic Beasts in the mountains really overflowing to such an extent?
"Grandpa Zhu is right. There are indeed many Demonic Beasts around us. They have already surrounded us!"
Yang Guo suddenly spoke at this time. Her small face was a little pale. She had nothing to do just now so she released some of her mental strength. As a result, she saw at least twenty Demonic Beasts of various shapes and sizes rushing towards them.
There were Demonic Beasts in all directions. They had already formed a large encirclement. No matter which direction they went, they would encounter those Demonic Beasts.
Zhu Zhengqi was stunned. He turned his head and looked at Yang Guo, "Little girl, you can see them?"
Yang Guo nodded her head vigorously.
"Then tell Grandpa, how many are there in total and where are they?" Zhu Zhengqi asked again.
Yang Guo replied, "There's a total of 20 of them, 5 in the east, 8 in the west, 4 in the south, and 3 in the north. They're rushing towards us at full speed. It seems like they're coming for us!"
Zhu Zhengqi's expression was dignified. He couldn't be sure whether Yang Guo was telling the truth or not, but the situation Yang Guo said was similar to the crisis that suddenly appeared in his heart.
There were dangers in all four directions. Among them, the west was the most dangerous, followed by the east and south, and the north was the least dangerous. If Zhu Zhengqi chose to break through the encirclement, he would follow his instincts and head north.
"Grandpa, Guoguo has awakened the Psychic Arcana, and her mental senses are extremely sharp. What she said should be true!" Zhu Caiwei knew Yang Guo's background and firmly believed in Yang Guo's judgment. She then suggested to Zhu Zhengqi, "Why don't we head north now? There are the least Demon Beasts there and it'll be easier to break out!"
Psychic Arcana?
Zhu Zhengqi nodded lightly. No wonder this little girl could see the bones buried underground from a distance of five meters in the Taoist temple. Psychic abilities really couldn't be measured by common sense.
"Don't be nervous. It's only twenty demonic beasts. Once they catch up, we'll just kill them."
Zhu Zhengqi waved his hand and did not agree with Zhu Caiwei's suggestion. He said, "Although the north is the safest, it's the opposite of our path. If we really break out of the encirclement in the north, we don't know how long it'll take us to get out of the mountain."
They now had less than two days left. If they couldn't get out of the mountain in time and reach Chengdu in two days, when the Spiritual Energy Tide erupts in two days, none of them would be able to survive.
No matter how high one's cultivation was, they were still afraid of a crowd.
Although Zhu Zhengqi was now at the peak of the Xiantian realm, his strength was equivalent to the peak of the Martial Disciple realm at the end of the world. He was only one step away from the Martial Master realm. However, when facing thousands of Demon Beasts, he would eventually run out of strength. Once his True Qi ran out, it would be difficult for him to escape from the beasts.
"Then what should we do?" Zhu Huawu's heart was anxious. He seemed to have heard the sound of the ground shaking. Those Demon Beasts were not far from them.
Zhu Zhengqi raised his hand and pointed. "Go over there. Back to the cliff and form a circular defense. Damn it!"
Zhu Zhengqi could kill ordinary Demon Beasts with one slap. Twenty Demon Beasts were just a matter of breath.
Moreover, the young people present were already Xiantian Realm warriors. Their physical fitness was far better than that of ordinary people. Their individual combat strength was much stronger than that of the special forces in the army. If everyone fought together, they should be able to finish the battle in three minutes.
Under Zhu Zhengqi's order, the seven people simultaneously jumped to the side of a cliff a hundred meters away.
With their backs against the cliff, they formed a fan-shaped defensive attack. They could easily deal with the enemies coming from the other three directions.
Zhu Zhengqi and Zhu Huawu's cultivation were the highest. They stood in the middle as the main force. While killing the Demon Beasts, they could also support and protect the two sides at any time.
Soon, the ground shook more and more violently. In the distance, they could already see some Demon Beasts that were taller than the surrounding trees.
Zhou Xiao and Liu Qun, one holding a saber in one hand and the other holding a dagger in the other. Their bodies began to tremble, but they still stood in the same place with a determined look.
Zhu Caiwei and Yang Guo stood beside Zhu Zhengqi, watching the incomparably huge Demonic Beasts pounce on them one after another. The two girls clenched their teeth. Although their faces were pale, their expressions were surprisingly calm. Even their legs didn't tremble in the slightest.
They each held a special Zhanmadao in their hands. It was three fingers wide and half a meter long. There was a blood groove in the middle of the blade. It looked like a standard military weapon. It was exactly the same as the long saber in Zhou Xiao's hand. It should be a special weapon of the Special Affairs Bureau.
Zhu Caiwei's face was solemn. She stood with the saber in her hand. There was a valiant and formidable aura around her. However, Yang Guo looked a little strange. The Zhanmadao was longer than her arm. When she held it in her hand, it was completely disproportionate. There was a sense of a small horse pulling a large cart.
Zhu Zhengqi looked at the two of them in surprise. He softly said, "Caiwei is fine, but Guo Guo is still young. She's not suitable for this kind of bloody scene. It's better for her to retreat to the back! We adults haven't all died yet. It's not your turn to stand up for a child! "
Zhu Zhengqi could not bear to let a twelve year old little girl stand up and fight. He could not afford to lose this face.
He was a proper soldier. Protecting his countrymen, women and children was a habit that had been imprinted in his bones. Yang Guo was only twelve years old. She was still a child. She should not be facing such a bloody scene so early.
In fact, if it was possible, Zhu Zhengqi even wanted Zhu Caiwei to retreat to the protective circle behind them. With men around, why would a woman need to come out and fight for her life?
"I … I don't want to!"
Yang Guo firmly shook her little head. She held her little fist tightly and said loudly, "I'm very powerful! Master said that if I can overcome the fear of demonic beasts in my heart, I can defeat ten Toad Demons by myself! I want to try. I feel that I'm not that afraid anymore! "
Zhu Zhengqi was confused. What the hell was Toad Demons? Defeating ten Toad Demons was already very powerful?
By the side, Zhu Caiwei's body trembled. When she heard the word 'Toad', the image of a large toad spitting at her appeared in front of her eyes. She could not help but feel disgusted.
This was the aftereffect of the previous Toad Trial. Zhu Caiwei did not want to hear the word 'Toad'.
"You child …"
"Grandfather, don't try to persuade her anymore. Don't treat Guo Guo as an ordinary child. She's right. She's already very powerful!"
Zhu Zhengqi seemed to be interested in the Toad Demons that Yang Guo mentioned. Just as he was about to ask Yang Guo, Zhu Caiwei hurriedly interrupted him. She said to Zhu Zhengqi sternly, "In short, Yang Guo and I are no longer the same as before. These demonic beasts can't scare us!"
"Yang Fan … Master once told us that the demonic beasts are rampant and the end of the world is coming. In the future, if we want to live well in this coming end of the world, we must bravely face these demonic beasts."
"Retreating and being timid will only make us die faster! The only way for us to survive is to keep on killing and killing! "
What did this mean?
Zhu Zhengqi was a little confused.
He was shocked by the sudden burst of murderous aura from his precious granddaughter.
Damn it!
What did that bastard Yang Fan teach these two girls in the past few days? Why did he feel that these two girls had become so violent?
Although it was not wrong for girls to be strong, to kill and kill at the slightest provocation was a violent maniac. How would she find a husband in the future? Which man could stand such a woman?
What was Yang Fan trying to do? Could it be that he wanted to train everyone to be a violent maniac like him?
Bastard!
If he had known earlier, he would have stopped little Yue Yue from becoming his disciple.
But now, in just a few days' time, the originally gentle and lovely little girl, who usually couldn't even bear to look at a chicken, was now holding a Zhanmadao, sharpening it to kill Demonic Beasts.
It had only been a few days, not even five days. Had little Yue Yue been brainwashed?
Rumble!
Waves of violent tremors came from afar. These demonic beasts did not have the slightest intention of hiding and directly charged towards the cliff where the seven of them were.
Zhu Zhengqi could clearly see that when these demonic beasts saw them, their eyes were red with excitement, surprise, and even drooling.
They were really treating them as delicious snacks!
Zhu Zhengqi curled his lips. Were these demonic beasts all melon seeds? There were only seven of them in total and they did not even add up to a thousand jin. It was not even enough to fill the gaps between the teeth of one of these demonic beasts. Was there a need for twenty of them to run over?
"Everyone get ready, kill!"
Under Zhu Zhengqi's command, everyone raised their weapons and charged towards the demonic beast closest to them. If they wanted to live, they had to kill all the demonic beasts near them in the shortest time possible. Even if they could not kill them, they had to make sure that the demonic beast would not sneak attack the others around them.
Zhu Zhengqi flew up and smashed the head of a Giant Piebald Snake with a palm strike. Then, he rushed to the second one, and the third one. In just three seconds, he had consecutively smashed five Class 1 Monster Beasts to death.
Beside him, Zhou Xiao and Liu Qun were teaming up to deal with one, Zhu Caiwei and Yang Guo were teaming up to deal with another, and Zhu Huawu and Zhu Jiacheng were each dealing with one. In a short time, it seemed that they did not have the ability to kill the demonic beasts in front of them.
However, because behind them was the cliff, there were five huge demonic beasts blocking in front of them. It just happened to form a meat wall made of demonic beasts' bodies, blocking the remaining dozen or so demonic beasts behind them. Even if they were anxious, there was no way to rush in and attack at the same time.
As long as they could hold on for a while and not let the demonic beasts in front of them break through their defense, Zhu Zhengqi could use his powerful strength to kill the demonic beasts in the periphery one by one. At that time, the crisis would be resolved.
"En? How could it be?! "
Suddenly, Zhu Zhengqi, who was in the middle of killing the ninth demonic beast, did not know why, but his mind suddenly became absent-minded. His vision turned black, and he was directly kicked away by a spore in front of him. He fiercely crashed into the cliff behind him, and the rocks on the cliff were smashed into pieces.
"Pu!!"
Spitting out a mouthful of blood, Zhu Zhengqi unwillingly fell to the ground. The strongest person in the group of seven was suddenly seriously injured and unconscious. The situation in front of the remaining six people suddenly became very critical.
"Grandpa!"
"Grandpa!"
Zhu Caiwei and Zhu Huawu's complexion changed at the same time. They anxiously called out to the back. With their distraction, the demonic beasts that were fighting with them seized the opportunity and exploded. Almost at the same time, the brother and sister were blasted to the foot of the cliff behind them.
The situation suddenly became 4v12. Zhou Xiao, Liu Qun, Zhu Jiacheng, and Yang Guo felt the pressure on them increase. They quickly shrank their formation, and each person barely blocked a demonic beast, forming a meat wall, protecting them and the four people behind them.
"I … I may not be able to hold on! You guys be careful later! "
Liu Qun was the first to be unable to hold on. Previously, he and Zhou Xiao were fighting a demonic beast together, and they could barely protect themselves. Now the situation had changed, and suddenly he was facing it alone. With his strength that had just entered the Xiantian realm, he really could not hold on.
Five wounds had already appeared on his body. Although they weren't fatal, blood was constantly seeping out. He already felt that his limbs were weak, and his back was drenched in sweat. Under such circumstances, he would definitely follow in the footsteps of Zhu Huawu and the others in at most ten seconds.
No, maybe he would be even more miserable. The five-step snake in front of him would definitely swallow him in one gulp, and he would die without a complete corpse!
"Hold … hold on! Wait a little longer, just a little longer! "
Zhou Xiao's expression was dignified. When he swung his saber to deal with the weasel in front of him, he constantly used his spiritual power to interfere, and the Beast Taming Technique was freely used on the weasel's body. He felt that he was about to succeed, and the weasel's attack frequency had decreased. Just a little longer, and he would definitely succeed!
Zhu Jiacheng also gritted his teeth and held on. His martial arts strength was not enough, and it was already extremely difficult to deal with a demonic beast. He simply did not have the strength to help Liu Qun.
Among the four people, only Yang Guo was the calmest. The green wolf in front of her was as quiet as an old dog at this moment. Even if Yang Guo was holding the Zhanmadao and constantly slashing its body, and cut its flesh and blood, it did not move at all.
Hearing Liu Qun's cry of grief, the little girl suddenly separated a portion of her spiritual power, and temporarily restricted the movements of the big snake in front of Liu Qun, giving Liu Qun a chance to breathe.
Not only that, after controlling the big snake, the little girl suddenly realized that she seemed to have some strength left.
So, she tried to send a portion of her spiritual power to the demonic beasts in front of Zhou Xiao and Zhu Jiacheng.
